Bad luck sucks. A string of bad luck sucks even more. We cannot control the Universe.
I like what Neal Donald Walsh said in his book, Conversations With God. Our purpose in life is not to learn lessons like kids in classroom with God in front rapping our knuckles with a ruler but to remember our perfection.
There is the Serenity Prayer which talks about having acceptance with things we cannot control.
I also like Viktor Frankel who wrote about his Nazi Concentration Camp experience in Man’s Search for Meaning. He survived the horror through finding meaning in life.
